Grand Prix Rejects

Florida and winter. That's like saying sun and moon, Ron Dennis and Ferrari, or Kevin Spacey and Danny DeVito. Oh we do get some cold days down here. Maybe not as bad as the people up north, but you can still freeze to death at that time of year. We even get snow on rare occasions. If fact, we had ...

That's a shame. Good rally car driver that went through the Classic, Group B, and Group A eras. Rest in Peace.

Lord Richard Attenborough has died. Didn't see much of him, but in Jurassic Park he was cool as the creator. Yet to see his greatest works such as Gandhi or Chaplin though. RIP Richard. That's a shame. Loved him in "Guns at Batasi". His work in "A Bridge to Far" is one of the mo...

Lot of candidates here, but there are the most obvious ones for me. 1. Mercedes: Let's face it. It was inevitable the two were going to collide with each other. But what I have seen was just a little 50/50 incident blown way out of proportion. If it costs the team in the future, then it's on their h...

1. Raikkonen: That's the Kimi I remember! 2. Riccardo: This guy might pull an upset in the WDC by the way things are going. Honorable Mentions: Lotterer: I was expecting him to be absolutely terrible. But he took me by surprise. Bottas: Another fine podium! McLaren: Nice run after a lackluster firs...

OBOZO is more like it. Anyways, I hope Rossi does well this weekend. As long as he does better than Lotterer, then I'm a happy camper.

Rest in Peace Robin Williams. My coworkers were talking about it all morning. That said, I think this should be a thread for comedy of all nations, not just English comedy. How about suggesting calling it "The Rik Mayall/Robin Williams Comedy Thread".

For the late James Garner.

Whatever. Let's kick it.

Lot of candidates here, but.

1. Force India Drivers: Both threw away a potentially good result for the team.

2. Grojean: Made Ericsson's incident look forgivable.

1. Alonso: How did he manage to hold off Lewis like that with worn tires?! Amazing podium result for him! Shades of Spain 81 there. 2. Riccardo: Beat both Mercedes on merit. Made his strategy work. Brought home a well deserved victory. Honorable Mentions: Hamilton: Pitlane to 3rd is no easy task. V...

They were mentioning this on the NBC Broadcast yesterday that James Garner, star of the racing classic "Grand Prix" just died.

He was 86.

1. Bottas: Held onto that 2nd place pretty much all race long, and managing to hold off Hamilton those last few laps get's the top spot for me. 2. Hamilton: Like CoopsII, and More_Blue_Flags, I was not expecting him to get that high up so quickly. Especially maintaining his composure for the most p...

1. The Stewards: The way they just left Sutil's car out in the track like that is just inexcusable.

2. Massa: Was not keeping his eyes out when it mattered most, and blamed the rookie for it.

Well since no one else has done it, I might as well choose my Rejects of the 2014 World Cup. 3rd - Brazil: Played like a bunch of bullies early on, which cost them dearly later on. Destroyed by the Germans in the semi-finals, and duly surrender 3rd to the Dutch. Certainly did not deserve to get as f...

What if Emerson Fittipaldi stayed with McLaren instead of joining he, and his brother's team?

DNQ: NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! NEIN! That it so fitting If this actually happens, that should get a bonus point I was soooooooo tempted to put that as my alternate race name. But since this is the 10th race, I didn't think it would work. Maybe a Super Hitler Sparta Remix...

Well done to Germany. They certainly deserved it.

Congratulations Nico! You may have not gotten the race win, but you got something much better today!

I like your train of thought! But unfortunately, I am not in South Africa, but South Scotland. And I'm in neither South Africa nor South Scotland, but South England!

I've said it since the start of the tournament, it's Germany's to lose. This. I was pretty wary of how tough the Germans would be, and they were the ones who I thought would most likely win the world cup even before it ever started. I don't see how Germany will not win against Argentina. But if Arg...

Now after this madness, I guess it's time to watch a movie.

It would have been nice if it was 7-0. Then they would have won by a touchdown.

DOSBoot

I think I may call this game "The Great Choke". Because that's what it was.

DOSBoot

Man! That Germany-Brazil match was comedy gold! Reject gold! I'd figured Brazil wouldn't be so good with their star players out. But not THAT badly. It was a miracle they even managed to get a goal by the way they were playing. To say they were terrible would be a huge understatement. Just when you ...

1. Raikkonen: I think Ferrari made a mistake by choosing him.

2. Gutierrez: Seemed to be looking for any way to take himself out of the race.

DOSBoot

1. Bottas: 14th to 2nd. Nuff said.

2. Alonso: Still finished well despite the stop-go penalty.

Well I hope Nico pulls a Joe Frasier or Ken Norton on him this weekend.

Well, my country's team is out. But overall I'm pretty satisfied with what they were able to achieve with against much stronger opponents. Especially since we were heavily favored not to make it past the "group of death", and was able to do it. Plus getting payback on Ghana for 2006, and 2...

It'll be interesting to contrast Brazil and Argentina to say, Costa Rica and the USA - teams that have immensely talented individuals, up against teams that are performing above the sum of their parts through excellent teamwork and team spirit. I like to think that the unified teams will find a way...
